SISTAZZZ FOREVAAAA.


DOLLY, SHUYI, & DA PRO.


Sec 1 Saxophone section.


Haha, just random shots I took over the past few days.
Holidays are here, oh here.
Getting progress report tomorrow. Oh my God.


Celebrated Mr. Tan's birthday with the band yesterday.
It wasn't really much of a surprise kind of thing, but I'm glad he liked it.

MAKE MUSIC, NOT MISSILES! :D


Well, it's band break for the seniors already.
Study hard people!

I'm feel damn disturbed by that 不能说的秘密.
Sucks when you can't tell anyone, and you can't 发泄,
and you really can't do anything to change anything,
and everything's just gonna happen right before my eyes.

Feel like just digging a hole and die inside.

Anyway, if whoever's reading's interested..

ASKWEUBNSJKLDFVNASDEFVBSDJCVNJKN

I'm looking forward to it, actually. :D
It makes me think back. Back, and way way back.
Creepy crawlies, Mickey Mouse March, Soaring Through Ionian Skies, Can-Can?
Haha, that was 2 years back,
when I was still comfortably hiding in the middle of the second row,
playing on the oboe Tianji's using now, PEH-ING AWAY.

超怀念 !





加油 JUNIORS!


I hate it when people do this kind of thing to me.
Damn irritating.

Walau eh.


Life's damn routine nowadays.

EOY's coming. Feel damn flooded with work and all.
I don't think I'll get away with it this time. :/

OHOH.


I WENT SHOPPING TODAY.
Bought a top.
Left with zero dollars.

Omg omg, Fiona, I finally get to blog this.




Damn nice right!
Nah, they're not all mine. It's mine, Rayson and Hardy's.
Of course, I've got the nicest colours. Lime green and light blue!
I've yet to get the maroon brownish colour one. :D :D


Took our class photo today.
I think it sucks standing there and looking up.
We should have the normal thing. Like the chairs and benches. Oh well.


Jerelyn looks damn good in Afiq's sunglasses. :D

SISTAZZZ FOREVA!


If I could, I'd put all my hatred and unhappiness into a dagger,
and pierce it through your puny hearts.


真心地对待最珍贵。
如果你们只是虚情假意，只是在灯那张纸上的签名，
如果你们没有我要的诚意，
就请你们不要再浪费时间和精力。


Taking class photo tomorrow!
I wonder what my class's gonna do for the informal one.


I like PECOS PUEBLO.
Some fingerings are damn complicated lah.
I spent like super long figuring the fingerings out today.
Super fun lah!

Still having difficulty playing in air-conditioned rooms. =(


Pecos is a village in San Miguel County, New Mexico, United States. The population was 1,441 at the 2000 census, growing much faster than in other parts of San Miguel County, partly because Pecos is within commuting distance of Santa Fe[1]:54. The village is built along the Pecos River which flows from the north out of the Santa Fe National Forest. Notable locations nearby include Pecos National Historical Park, Glorieta Pass, Pecos Benedictine Monastery, and Lisboa Springs Trout Hatchery. It is also an entry point for hunting, fishing, hiking and camping in the Pecos Wilderness. The closest metro area (twenty five minutes northwest by car) is Santa Fe.

The Pueblo People are a diverse group of Native American inhabitants of New Mexico, Texas and Arizona who traditionally subsisted on agriculture. When first encountered by the Spanish in the 1500s, they were living in villages that the Spanish called Pueblos, meaning "towns". Of the approximately 25 pueblos that exist today, Taos, Acoma, Zuñi, and Hopi are the best-known.




They are believed to be descended from the three major cultures that dominated the region before European contact:

1. Mogollon, an area near the Gila Wilderness
2. Hohokam, archaeological term for a settlement in the Southwest
3. Ancient Pueblo Peoples or the Anasazi, a term coined by the Navajos

Historically, they supported themselves mostly by maize agriculture, although they live in one of the more arid regions in North America. European settlement began in the late sixteenth century, but the desert surrounding the Rio Grande Valley precluded massive intrusions into Indian land until the mid-nineteenth century. As a result and despite forced conversions to Catholicism by the Spanish, the Pueblo tribes have been able to maintain much of their traditional lifestyle. There are now some 35,000 Pueblo Indians, living mostly in New Mexico and Arizona along the Rio Grande and Colorado River.

These peoples were the first to successfully revolt against the Spanish in the Pueblo Revolt of 1680, which expelled the Spanish for 12 years. The code for the action was a knotted rope sent by runner to each pueblo; the number of knots signified the number of days to wait before beginning the uprising. It began August 10, 1680; by August 21, Santa Fe fell to 2500 warriors.[2] On September 22, 2005, the statue of Po'pay, (Popé) the leader of the Pueblo Revolt, was unveiled in the Capitol Rotunda in Washington D.C. The statue was the second one from the state of New Mexico and the 100th and last to be added to the Statuary Hall collection. It is the only statue in the collection created by a Native American, in this case, Cliff Fragua, a Puebloan from Jemez Pueblo.

Most of the Pueblos have annual ceremonies that are open to the public. In many cases, one such ceremony is the Pueblo's feast day, held on the day sacred to its Roman Catholic patron saint. (These saints were assigned by the Spanish missionaries so that each Pueblo's feast day would coincide with a traditional ceremony.) Some Pueblos also have ceremonies around the Christmas holidays and at other times of the year. The ceremonies usually feature traditional dances outdoors accompanied by singing and drumming, interspersed with non-public ceremonies in the kivas. They may also include a Roman Catholic Mass and processions.

Formerly, all outside visitors to a public dance would be offered a meal in a Pueblo home, but because of the large number of visitors, such meals are now by personal invitation only.

WIKIPEDIA ROCKS.


Maybe I was too harsh. Sorry.
But if it was all too much of a disturbance, I'm even more sorry.
I hate to feel that I'm forcing people, rather than persuading.
Yeah, my fault for being such an arse.


I want to go and watch fireworks with the others tomorrow!
It must be damn pretty to see it live, rather than on TV.
Haven't seen it 现场 since like a long long time ago. =(
Basket lah, always like that one.


Band practise was quite interrupted today, by the Sudoku Competition thing.
Didn't get to demo the pieces for the Junior Band. Ahh..


And we almost couldn't find the band room key.
Omfg, it was damn scary can. O_O

ANYONE GOT EXTRA COMPUTER MOUSE TO DONATE TO ME?


Tutoring tomorrow. Hurray!


PECOS PUEBLO.


I LIKE !!!
MR. WONG KAH CHOON IS A GENIUS LAH.


I always thought of composers as eccentric people.
Maybe not all, but majority. Like, a bit 'kee siao' or something lah.
But hey! The young man's really talented!
Now I'm feeling proud to be a Singaporean. :D


I'm looking forward to performing the piece!


I feel damned betrayed.


I believe in “团结就是力量”, and I think that's what's lacking.

Sometimes, you breathe so hard your chest hurts.
Sometimes, you think so hard your brain's screaming.
Sometimes, you cry so hard your eyes turn sore.

Sometimes, I lose my breath.


Today, Ms. Loh showed us this article on the increasing suicide rates in Sg.
Then they talked about the symptoms of being suicidal too.
Talk about it being stupid.
When you're the one faced with all that crap,
you wouldn't be able to handle it too.

LOSE WEIGHT LOSE WEIGHT !!



I hate this time of the month.


HOORAH!
I did my own skin, after such a looooong time.
Okay, I didn't do the entire thing.
I was lazy to go and do the codes, so I used the old one. HEH.

Comments comments? :D


I got the 心痒痒 feeling!
I want to watch 不能说的秘密 again!

Hell to those who watched it on YouTube. Basket.



Jay Chou is super cute in the movie lah!
I cried quite a lot. If you haven't watched it, MUST WATCH OKAY.

When it just started, I thought it was some typical love story,
like Bibiana said, "我追你，你追我。" kind of movie.
Then, I started to think it was a ghost story.
Then after the whole thing 水落石出 then I started crying, and the whole thing became super touching lah.

I shan't blabber about the story and what happens lah.
It'll be a damn spoiler.

But yeah, it was really nice!
The story wasn't in any part of my imagination or expectation at all.
Yeah, but I must say that some parts of the effects were quite fake,
but that's not the 重點 so nevermind.



NYAHAHAHA. Jay's so cute. :D
I feel like watching it again.


Happy 42nd birthday, Singapore.





And the Lord said, "No."

NYAHAHAHAHA.


Guess what I've been into for the past 2 days...

CHINESE CHESS! :D

I won Jingjie okay! ;D
Okay, that's with the help of many other people lah. Who cares, I won.


Had our first event without the Sec 4s yesterday.
Yeah, an exchange with a Taiwan Band.

They have really good players lah.
According to Mr. De Souza, they have individual tutors, like 1 to 1.
So that's kind of like a different story.

As for our performance, it could have been way better,
in many many aspects.
But yeah, everyone co-operated rather well yesterday.
Like moving around quickly, carrying stuff and all that.
But we've still got a long way to go.

Go Cmb.

Nevertheless, I had a nice time with Peiyi!

OBOISTS!!! :D

DOUBLE REED SECTION! Yeah, with the bassoons. :D


One of the stress balls I bought, supposedly for the Taiwan double reed section,
but since they didn't have one, I'll keep it for myself. NYAHAHA.


Yibin gave me a really nice reed today.
I liked it a lot! Until it got hard, and I told him it's hard, and he scraped it, and it died.

=( =( =( =( =( =(

Nevermind. I quite like the current one I have now.
It's kinda nice to play on too.
I still miss the wonderful like 15 minutes I had with that reed. =(


加油，立才中學管樂隊！


What the world needs now, is love, sweet love.
It's the only thing, that there's just too little.


Msn Messenger is such an unsincere way of keeping in contact.
I just looked through my contacts,
and I realised that I can't remember like 1/4 of the people,
1/8 of the people are some people who I don't even know,
and I think another 1/4 of the people don't remember me.

Keep in contact? Yeah, right.


Yeah, it is a good mean of communication.
If you're doing projects and stuff, its easy to get things sent here and there.
But, talk about keeping in contact with people you meet like once a year.
Like, primary school friends?

Maybe it's me. Maybe I'm just one of those who don't go and make an effort to
talk to those people when I see them online.


What a pointless post.
But yeah, the world needs some love.

Please go and buy a copy of The Straits Times.
